Shiitake Mushroom with Pork Belly
Ingredients needed: shiitake mushrooms, 1 plate; green bell pepper 1 (slightly spicy); pork loin 1 piece; scallion, ginger minced; cornstarch; vegetable oil; white pepper; salt; soy sauce
Detailed steps:
First, prepare all the ingredients. Wash the shiitake mushrooms clean. My family has elementary school students, so I used a small amount of slightly spicy, and those who like spicy can add more green bell pepper.
Second, slice the shiitake mushrooms, cut the green bell pepper into pieces, slice the pork loin thinly, mix with minced scallion and ginger, white pepper and a little soy sauce, then mix with cornstarch and marinate for 5 minutes, which makes the meat more tender
Third, don’t directly put the shiitake mushrooms into the pot to stir-fry, you need to blanch them first. Put the shiitake mushrooms into a pot of boiling water to blanch, then remove them and drain them. Blanching shiitake mushrooms makes them smoother when stir-fried and prevents them from turning black.
Fourth, add vegetable oil to the wok, when it’s hot, add the marinated pork loin slices and stir-fry over medium heat until changed color, add soy sauce to adjust the color and stir-fry evenly
Fifth, pour in the blanched shiitake mushrooms, add salt and stir-fry over high heat until fragrant and cooked, then add green bell pepper and stir-fry until it’s not crispy. If the color is not enough, add a little soy sauce to adjust the color.
Sixth, add salt and stir-fry evenly, and take it out of the pot. This dish’s characteristics: savory and delicious, smooth texture, very filling.
